Yep I concede 99.9999% of people hearing BK's comment would indeed take that view, I was flying so didn't hear it myself, but i don't believe there were any qualifications added, of course all are needed (but not during the winter) no matter, no one had any idea in joining NAS that they were in any risk of a winter layoff, so yes completely unacceptable.
The upgrade one puzzles me more, not withstanding my earlier comments i don't know of anyone who has changed seats in less than 12-16 months, so i can't understand why anyone would suggest that it was 6 months???
OSM seem to running round like headless chickens and i suspect the next few months will be er interesting, thankfully the company seems to be on a catch up year and it needs it more than it knows
